An internal Drug Enforcement Administration report showed the agency gave its agents a mere slap on the wrist for purchasing the services of Colombian prostitutes, sometimes with taxpayer money and sometimes as they let local police watch their weapons and personal property.

 

A summary of the internal report shows the DEA doled out punishments to 10 of its agents, which ranged from a letter of caution to a two-week suspension. None of the agents who participated in the parties was fired.

 

In one instance, money to pay prostitutes at a farewell party for a high-ranking DEA official was included in an “operational budget” that used government funds for the party, the report said.

 

Lawmakers expressed concern during the hearing that some of the government-funded sex soirees may have included teenagers.

 

– From the Washington Times article: No DEA Agents Fired for Colombia Prostitute Parties, Internal Report Reveals

Last month, I highlighted the “truth is stranger than fiction” story about how Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) agents were caught having sex parties with prostitutes hired by drug cartels. I ended that post with:

While these agents will almost undoubtedly receive no real punishment, perhaps some good will come from this: End the idiotic war on drugs.

Well we now have access to an internal DEA report on the incident, and find out that, unsurprisingly, the agents involved received barely a slap on the wrist. Moreover, it appears some of the women hired for these parties may have been teenagers.

Just in case you are still under the naive impression that the rule of law exists in America. The Washington Times reports that:

An internal Drug Enforcement Administration report showed the agency gave its agents a mere slap on the wrist for purchasing the services of Colombian prostitutes, sometimes with taxpayer money and sometimes as they let local police watch their weapons and personal property.

It’s always nice to know that the drug cartels didn’t have to foot the bill for these parties every time. The sucker American taxpayer also helped fund the orgies.

The report and a Tuesday hearing on it prompted a key congressman to say that the DEA chief needs to resign.

 

A summary of the internal report shows the DEA doled out punishments to 10 of its agents, which ranged from a letter of caution to a two-week suspension. None of the agents who participated in the parties was fired.

 

In one instance, money to pay prostitutes at a farewell party for a high-ranking DEA official was included in an “operational budget” that used government funds for the party, the report said.

 

DEA agents also rented undercover apartments in Colombia and used them to host prostitutes, the DEA said in its internal report.

 

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee staff made the internal report available at Tuesday’s hearing, which gave lawmakers a chance to look into the Justice Department inspector general’s investigation accusing DEA agents of attending prostitute orgies funded by local drug cartels in a foreign country from 2009 to 2012.

 

The DEA’s internal report expands upon that review, detailing 14 years of misconduct accusations, dating back to 2001. Ten DEA agents were accused of wrongdoing; seven were issued suspensions ranging from one to 10 days. The internal report depicts married agents, who did “the most running around” with women, as “out of control.”

14 years of this and nobody thought to stop it. Typical out of control bureaucracy with zero accountability.

Lawmakers expressed concern during the hearing that some of the government-funded sex soirees may have included teenagers.

 

In response to pointed questions about whether underage women were among the prostitutes, DEA Administrator Michele Leonhart replied: “I don’t know that.”

Better question is what does she know?

The explosive internal report shows that punishments recommended for the DEA agents also were reduced without explanation in many cases. It is also unknown whether any of the DEA supervisors who may have known about the accusations but failed to report them were punished.

 

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, Utah Republican and committee chairman, expressed dismay and shock that agents were allowed to return to work quickly “with their secret clearances fully intact.”

 

During the hearing though, Ms. Leonhart responded that civil service protections make it difficult to fire DEA agents.

If you can fire DEA agents for attending sex parties paid for by drug cartels, what can you fire them for?

Mr. Cummings, the ranking member of the committee, said the report depicted “truly breathtaking recklessness” and showed “DEA agents as completely out of control.”

 

Lawmakers from both parties said they were dumbfounded that Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. found it necessary to send a memo last week reminding department employees not to purchase the services of prostitutes.

 

“Hello? Am I missing something?” Mr. Cummings said. “I think we are at an all-time low here.”

We can go a lot lower, and we probably will. This is what you get when government agents can repeatedly act like criminals and get away with it. Same goes for Wall Street thieves.

Wake the fuck up, Mike: the age of consent is 14 years old in Columbia.

The DEA are fucking pedophiles - their Columbian dealer pals are their offshore suppliers.

The DEA changed their 'internal' bullshit report several times, replacing what should have been 'child' with 'underage' and then with 'teenage' and then 'may have been teenagers'. Pretty soon, we'll see the DEA claiming the parties involved 'pre-retirement-aged women'. The law and moral decency does not apply to the DEA - that's for you fucking peons. 

Do you think the Justice Department want's to argue about tapping your domestic phone or hacking your computer at will when their agents are busy having sex with children? Here's how the system works: you would be doing hard time in a federal prison if the Justice Department pedophiles claimed there was a revealing picture of the maybe-teenage prostitutes on your computer - the same maybe-teenage prostitutes their agents are having sex with in Columbia, courtesy of the Columbian drug cartels and your taxpayer dollars.

The War on Drugs was all about taking control of the international drug trade by a small faction inside the US gov, so in terms of winning or losing the war on drugs, most have lost but a very special few have ultimately won the war

All one needs do is simply take note of the non prosecution, atta boy/girl back pats to complete the picture of what is really occurring.

Well isn't it comforting to know that "lawmakers expressed concern" to find out that gov employess "working" for the *Drug Enforcement Administration* are having drug and prostirution parties!

Isn't that a nice slap in the face. All anybody else has to do is get pulled over by one of these maniac cops and get "caught" with too much of your own money and guess what.

YOU'RE GUILTY!

You don't even have to be charged with anything at all. To top it off these mother-fuckers pull the cheap trick of arresting your money, that somehow thwarts it being unconstitutional in their sick fucking heads. Then it's your burden to somehow get it back from the filthy corrupt assholes.

Unbelievable the arrogance and gall! As a staunch religious agnostic, reading this crap almost non-stop makes me wish some deity would come along and punish these monsters something fierce...cuz it aint happening on this earth,

In 2013 Miguel Trevino Morales, "40," leader of the Mexican drug cartel, the Zetas, was arrested.  40 was infamous for not sleeping until he saw someone killed.  As soon as he was arrested, he was sent to the US.  He created a living hell for the hard-working Mexican population, who aren't allowed to own firearms.

In a Mexico City newspaper, it was revealed that the DEA had known of his whereabouts for 3 years before they told the Mexican authorities.

Regardless of their psychopathic duplicity, always remember that aggression against an American's Life, Liberty, and/or Property under color of authority is engaging, levying, war against them.

Article 3, Section 3 of the the Constitution that these thugs take an oath to defend, states that treason is the "levying war against them [people and states]."

That they even label their own actions as "war," makes it that much easier to add them to my Crimes Against the American People List (CAAPL) treason list.

The banksters need to repay us.

From the perspective of Puritanical perverts, better to have a corrupted and compromised police force than to admit that the basic human drives of casual sex and drug use are so deeply entrenched in the human condition that no amount of law-and-order "Hang the bastards!" tyranny can root them out.

Congress theoretically performs oversight on DEA. Yet see what the DEA does, and gets away with without penalty, with impunity.

Now consider all of the NSA Executives, Managers and Employees secretly getting rich, using all the insider information that they have unfettered access to, in the financial markets, not to mention the blackmail money obtained, using secret information they have on, well, everyone.

The worst criminals are those in government.

That's right.  It was meant to...

And the IRS, in fact, does not collect taxes for the GENERAL welfare, but specifically targeted to the administration's political enemies?

That's right.  It comes down to a question of exempt sta...

And the President, whose position is created to faithfully execute the laws and serve as the commander in chief, IN FACT, completely ignores some laws, and then writes executive orders meant explicitly to contradict duly passed and signed laws?

That's right.  It is well within precedent to...

And the Federal government that is FORBIDDEN from infringing on speech, IN FACT, has outlawed many forms of speech?

Well, yes, but...

And the Federal government that is FORBIDDEN from infringing on the right to keep and bear arms IN FACT does so in a wide variety of ways?

Now if you want to be technical, yes. But as a reasonable...

And the same one who is FORBIDDEN to take life or property without due process of Law, internally described as habeus corpus, trial by jury, the right to remain silent, and the right to face one's accusers, IN FACT holds that it may take property by accusing inanimate objects of a crime? And that it may take life because the fact of its decision to take a life is itself a process of Law?

Yes.  That is correct.

And the FBI, whose job it is to ENFORCE Federal Laws, IN FACT has instigated every plot they've supposedly interdicted?

While technically true, it is not fair to say...

Is there any part of this government that does what it is supposed to do, purported to do, or specified in Law established by referendum to do?

Ahhh... Well...  The election cycles are proper.

And is there a doubt about the policies that will be supported by those 'elected'?

No.  Not so much.  Really.  See, they reduce the list of candidates to two, both of who are respectively approved by...

Is there ANYTHING this government is supposed to do that it actually does?

Well... it passes the Army budget every two years, while the Navy and Air Force get their budgets for longer...

Anything else?

No.

Is there ANYTHING this government fails to do that it is FORBIDDEN to do?

No.

Well?

Excuse me? 'Well' what?

Well, what good is it then?

They can be judged by the culture of corruption they work in, under the vagaries of the failed "war on drugs". Surely, decent people would find actual productive work to do instead of feeding off of tax slaves. Waging war on ditch weed while the Mexican drug cartels have carte blanche access to the United States is not productive work IMO. They can't even do their job, and when they do (as they see it), it will be arresting me for buying one too many bottles of children's cough syrup.
